Katelyn Smith hit a long three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Mason County Lady Royals a 54-52 road win over the Holy Cross Lady Indians tonight. The Lady Royals led 40-26 in the third quarter, but the Lady Indians roared back with a 15-1 run tie it at 41-41. Mason County went back out in front only to see Holy Cross come back again. The Lady Indians took a 53-52 lead with 23 seconds to play and were up 52-51 and shooting two free throws with 1.4 seconds remaining. After missing the first shot, the Holy Cross player intentionally missed the second but failed to hit the rim and Mason County got the ball out of bounds length of the court. After a timeout, McKayla Likins threw the inbounds pass into front court to Smith who took one dribble and launched the game-winning shot. Smith had a team-high 15 points. Mason County (5-0) plays Berea Saturday in the Berea Holiday Classic.
